In this paper, a frequency-selective structure based on guided-mode resonance effects in all-dielectric waveguide gratings is demonstrated theoretically and verified experimentally. Reflection (band-stop) filters with high efficiency, extended low-sideband reflection, and symmetric line shapes are designed by embeddin…

Ferroelectric properties of the metal/ferroelectric/insulator/semiconductor (MFIS) structure were investigated using the Pt/YMnO3/Y2O3/Si structure. The ferroelectric C–V hysteresis was observed for not only the Pt/YMnO3(0001)/Y2O3/Si capacitor but also the Pt/amorphousYMnO3/Y2O3/Si capacitor. The polarization evaluat…

Ferroelectric properties of a Pb(Zi, Ti)O 3 (PZT) capacitor with thin SrRuO 3 (SRO) films within both electrodes were investigated in detail. Thin SRO films of 10 nm thickness markedly improve the electrical performance, such as switching charge (Qsw), saturation characteristics of the hysteresis curve and imprint per…

A different phase-separation process is capable of producing a composite system consisting of a very thin layer of liquid crystal in contact with a similarly thin layer of polymer. The morphology of the polymer depends on the composition of the prepolymer-liquid crystal mixture and the rate of polymerization. A simple…

Pyruvate kinase (PK; EC 2.7.1.40) of Thermoproteus tenax was purified to homogeneity, and its coding gene was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. It represents a homomeric tetramer with a molecular mass of 49 kDa per subunit. PK exhibits positive binding cooperativity with respect to phosphoenolpyruvate and meta…

We report high-resolution x-ray-absorption near-edge structure measurements at the Mn K edge as a function of temperature, for ${\mathrm{La}}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{Ca}}_{x}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}$ samples, with a focus mainly on the pre-edge region. Small peaks labeled ${A}_{1}--{A}_{3}$ are observed which correspond…

The problem of the low-temperature resistance of granular films of manganites with nanometric grain sizes is addressed. The observed upturn in the low-temperature resistance is understood in terms of charging effects. However, the standard Coulomb blockade scenario does not describe the observed dependence of the char…

A facile approach to engineering diverse mixed-colloid ensembles is presented here. Various colloid architectures are seen that are controlled by both electrostatic self-assembly and concentration changes (see Figure) regardless of the nature of the nanoparticle core. The methodology should be applicable to the creati…
